RIGHT\LEFT Join does not provide null values without condition - sql-server

Question

I have two tables one is the lookup table and the other is the data table. The lookup table has columns named cycleid, cycle. The data table has SID, cycleid, cycle. Below is the structure of the tables.
If you check the data table, the SID may have all the cycles and may not have all the cycles. I want to output the SID completed as well as missed cycles.
I right joined the lookup table and retrieved the missing as well as completed cycles. Below is the query I used.
SELECT TOP 1000 [SID]
,s4.[CYCLE]
,s4.[CYCLEID]
FROM [dbo].[data] s3 RIGHT JOIN
[dbo].[lookup_data] s4 ON s3.CYCLEID = s4.CYCLEID
The query is not displaying me the missed values when I query for all the SID's. When I specifically query for a SID with the below query i am getting the correct result including the missed ones.
SELECT TOP 1000 [SID]
,s4.[CYCLE]
,s4.[CYCLEID]
FROM [dbo].[data] s3 RIGHT JOIN [dbo].[lookup_data] s4
ON s3.CYCLEID = s4.CYCLEID
AND s3.SID = 101002
ORDER BY [SID], s4.[CYCLEID]
As I am supplying this query into tableau I cannot provide the sid value in the query. I want to return all the sid's and from tableau I will be do the rest of the things.
The expected output that i need is as shown below.
I wrote a cross join query like below to acheive my expected output
SELECT DISTINCT
tab.CYCLEID
,tab.SID
,d.CYCLE
FROM ( SELECT d.SID
,d.[CYCLE]
,e.CYCLEID
FROM ( SELECT e.sid
,e.CYCLE
FROM [db_temp].[dbo].[Sheet3$] e
) d
CROSS JOIN [db_temp].[dbo].[Sheet4$] e
) tab
LEFT OUTER JOIN [db_temp].[dbo].[Sheet3$] d
ON d.CYCLEID = tab.CYCLEID
AND d.SID = tab.SID
ORDER BY tab.SID
,tab.CYCLEID;
However I am not able to use this query for more scenarios as my data set have nearly 20 to 40 columns and i am having issues when i use the above one.
Is there any way to do this in a simpler manner with only left or right join itself? I want the query to return all the missing values and the completed values for the all the SID's instead of supplying a single sid in the query.

You can create a master table first (combine all SID and CYCLE ID), then right join with the data table
;with ctxMaster as (
select distinct d.SID, l.CYCLE, l.CYCLEID
from lookup_data l
cross join data d
)
select d.SID, m.CYCLE, m.CYCLEID
from ctxMaster m
left join data d on m.SID = d.SID and m.CYCLEID = d.CYCLEID
order by m.SID, m.CYCLEID
Fiddle
Or if you don't want to use common table expression, subquery version:
select d.SID, m.CYCLE, m.CYCLEID
from (select distinct d.SID, l.CYCLE, l.CYCLEID
from lookup_data l
cross join data d) m
left join data d on m.SID = d.SID and m.CYCLEID = d.CYCLEID
order by m.SID, m.CYCLEID
